Loki vs. Vector Cell Shading

Lolz new style!

This one’s randomredux’s fault for inadvertantly inspiring me with his awesomesauce picture of Miriah. So naturally I knock up a Loki for the same contest, mostly as an underhanded way to pimp Chainbreaker (oh ho ho I so schneaky).

The pic took about four or maybe five hours of work from start to finish. I sketched/inked it by hand (something I haven’t done in aa-aa-ages), scanned it, ran it through Vector Magic to get the outline, imported it into Photoshop and filled in the block shapes with the gradient tool and the Freehand Pen. It was… surprisingly a really relaxing way to ink and colour; something y’all’ll remember I loathe doing with a passion. I can see the style fitting Zenntheartof stuff really well… of course I’ll probably never actually do it again but, yanno, what~evah!
